Iran missile strikes wound over 100 in two south Israel townsARAD, Israel, March 22, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Iranian missile strikes on two southern Israeli towns wounded more than 100 people on Saturday, medics said, after Israeli air defence systems failed to intercept the projectiles. Dimona hosts a facility widely believed to possess the Middle East's sole nuclear arsenal, although Israel has never admitted possessing nuclear weapons. Israel has maintained a policy of ambiguity about its nuclear programme, and the plant officially focuses on research. Iran has fired repeated barrages of missiles at Israel daily in retaliation for the US-Israeli attacks that started on February 28. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue striking Iran and its allies after what he called a "very difficult evening".
